Provides information about installing DITA-FMx.
DITA-FMx can be downloaded from www.leximation.com/dita-fmx/.
DITA-FMx supports DITA 1.0 and FrameMaker 7.2 (contact us if you need a 7.1 version), but does not currently support FrameMaker 8.0. A version that supports DITA 1.1 for FrameMaker 7.2 and 8.0 is under development..
DITA-FMx is comprised of two plugin DLLs, one that provides import/export processing (ditafmx_app_72.dll) and one that provides general authoring support (ditafmx_72.dll). DITA-FMx also provides two structure applications (DTD, EDD, template, and read/write rules files) for use with DITA topic and map files. The EDD and r/w rules file have been set up specially to allow proper interaction with DITA-FMx. If you want to build your own DITA structure applications, you should clone these files and modify them as needed.
DITA-FMx does not currently provide a ditamap to book conversion process, however, you can use the plugin that was provided with the Adobe FrameMaker 7.2 Application Pack for DITA (Beta 2) for this purpose. If you are upgrading from the Application Pack, please follow the additional instructions to ensure a proper setup.
